It also states that “in the past too few stood by to defend the lives of our people, and so today we are here to stand for the lives of all people, born and unborn, in order to build a civilization of life and a culture of love.” The group was among the thousands of marchers who traveled to Washington to protest the 1973 Supreme Court Roe v. Wade decision that mandated legal abortion across the United States.
